Ride the Otway Odyssey

This annual (usually February) 100 km mountain bike marathon starts in Apollo Bay and finishes up in picturesque Forrest at the top of the Otway Ranges.

Riders first climb the hills surrounding Apollo Bay, taking in the spectacular views if they can catch their breath before heading into the Otway rainforest on their way through to Forrest and the 67 km point.

Then they speed into the world renowned Yaugher track for a 20km blast around the trails before returning to Forrest at the 87km mark.

The next stage takes in a steady 4WD track climb before leading them down possibly the best track on the course, through the trees to the base of the Sledgehammer. That completes the 100km race but there are 50km and 10km races if you don't feel up to the big one.
